In Ancient Aliens season 1 episode 5, entitled "The Return," the show delves further into the theory that aliens from outer space have been visiting Earth for thousands of years. This episode focuses on the idea that there may be unexplained connections between ancient structures and extraterrestrial beings.

The episode begins by presenting the mystery of the Sumerian civilization, one of the earliest recorded civilizations in human history. The Sumerians built advanced cities and invented writing, but their culture seemingly appeared out of nowhere. Ancient astronaut theorists claim that the Sumerians were aided in their advancements by extraterrestrial beings.

The show then examines the theory that ancient structures like Stonehenge and the Pyramids of Giza were constructed with the help of advanced technology that could only have come from aliens. The Stonehenge structure in particular is of interest to the theorists, as it is believed to have been built over a period of thousands of years, long before humans had the technology or tools necessary to move the massive stones used in its construction.

The episode also touches on the Nazca Lines, a series of massive geoglyphs etched into the desert in Peru. The lines depict various animals and shapes and are believed to have been created between 500 BCE and 500 CE. Ancient astronaut theorists suggest that the Nazca Lines may have been created as a sort of landing strip for extraterrestrial spacecraft.

The show then explores the idea that some of the most famous figures in human history, such as Jesus and Buddha, may have actually been extraterrestrial beings themselves. This theory suggests that these figures were able to perform miraculous feats and teach advanced spiritual ideas because of their advanced technology and knowledge.

Throughout the episode, experts in fields such as archaeology, astronomy, and ancient history weigh in on the evidence for and against the theory of ancient aliens. Skeptics argue that the idea of aliens influencing human history is far-fetched and unsupported by evidence, while proponents of the theory point to ancient artwork and cultural myths as evidence of extraterrestrial contact.

In the end, "The Return" asks viewers to consider the possibility that human civilization has been shaped by forces beyond our understanding and beyond our planet. The show presents compelling evidence and arguments on both sides of the debate, leaving viewers to draw their own conclusions about the role of aliens in human history.
